I have Xcode open. Building a cashflow management and forecasting app with Swift/SwiftUI. And using ChatGPT to write a large chunks of it!

Is ChatGPT that good at programming tasks for a real app? What kind of instruction do you give it?

I tried some toy examples for Python and was impressed but I haven’t tried to do anything useful yet.

It's really good. Scary good. Sometimes it gets in the way though (just writing the damn code might be faster than continuously refining prompts)
